Chapter 84 Will You Always Be With Me?
Cen Muqi was distressed. He softly retorted, “It’s not your fault. It’s the kidnapper and not you, Ji Naitang.”
“Kidnapper?” Ji Naitang suddenly laughed desolately. “Everyone blamed the kidnapper for being cruel and inhumane. The funny thing is that there wasn’t a kidnapper. Everything was a self-directed farce.”
Cen Muqi frowned. He seemed to guess something, he wasn’t sure. He asked, “What self-directed farce? The kidnapping case twelve years ago was fake?”
Ji Naitang nodded. Cen Muqi was shocked. “Then it wasn’t Zhou Qiang?”
“He wasn’t the mastermind, but he was an accomplice.”
“Then the mastermind was……”
Ji Naitang’s eyes deepened. “Ji Weihong.”
Ji Weihong was Ji Naitang’s father. He was a business tycoon and a huge philanthropist. Although Cen Muqi had guessed it, he was still extremely shocked when he heard Ji Naitang’s answer. The most incomprehensible thing was that the person who gave Ji Naitang so much pain was actually his biological father.
“Why would your dad do that?”
“Yes. Why would he do that…… I haven’t figured it out in so many years.”
“If the kidnapping was a self-directed play, then what about the car accident? Your dad supposedly took the money to ransom you and your brother back when the car accident happened. Ji Naitang, you were in the car then. Was the car accident really an accident?”
“Car accident……” Ji Naitang tried to think about the car accident, he couldn’t remember it in twelve years. What was the scene of the car accident like at the time?
He was one of the parties involved in the car accident, but he couldn’t remember why the car accident happened. He completely forgot whether it really was an accident or something else.
He had PTSD and was deliberately forgetting certain memories. Why did he want to forget them?
“I don’t know…… I can’t remember……” Ji Naitang lowered his head and buried his face in his arms. Cen Muqi noticed that when he mentioned the car accident, Ji Naitang looked like he was in pain.
Ji Naitang said he didn’t know and then he didn’t remember. What did this mean?
Cen Muqi recalled that he had met Ji Naitang at Yan Yebai’s psychological clinic before. His expression seemed to be similar to what it was right now.
It was a psychological clinic with one of the best psychological experts in the city. Ji Naitang had said he was there to visit a friend, but maybe not.
“If you can’t remember it, then don’t think anymore. Those things have passed already.” Cen Muqi reached out and gently hugged him.
Ji Naitang’s voice was muffled. “It’s not in the past. I will definitely remember it.”
“Then I’ll be with you while you slowly think about it. But for now, go sleep first, okay?”
Ji Naitang looked up. “Will you always be with me?”
“Yes.”
Ji Naitang’s lips moved. He really wanted to ask how long “always” was. After all, they weren’t dating, so it was unlikely they would be together forever, right?
But the atmosphere was too good right now, so he didn’t dare to ask. He was afraid if he asked, that would remind Cen Muqi of their relationship and Cen Muqi would renege.
Ji Naitang slowly leaned on Cen Muqi’s shoulder. He closed his eyes and quietly sensed the feeling of Cen Muqi being by his side. Cen Muqi had coaxed him earlier when he was at his saddest. His obsession in the hospital back then was finally fulfilled. But that was just one of his many obsessions regarding Cen Muqi.
Ji Naitang merely wanted to get close to Cen Muqi before. But at this moment, he discovered that he wanted to have Cen Muqi with him forever.
